truth-is-freedom.bsky.social @truth-is-freedom.bsky.social · 30/03/2025it was republicans who did that. they hate democracy. 000
Penny Flynn @pennyflynn.bsky.social · 30/03/2025The countryside was pretty Conservative, but yes, the cities, at least Tehran, was more liberal, and Mossadegh was a democratic leader. 020
Happy thoughts make you fly. @i-zelle.bsky.social · 30/03/2025This was only a representation of the city, not the entire country. Outside of the major population areas things were more religiously conservative. 010
johocas5.bsky.social @johocas5.bsky.social · 30/03/2025Project 2025 is exactly the same. Based on the same, tired Old Testament doctrine. I wish people would understand that fundamentalist Christianity, Islam, and Judaism are offshoots of the same Abrahamic religious texts. 3190

sjcurtis.bsky.social @sjcurtis.bsky.social · 30/03/2025Exactly! All our government’s interference in other governments around the world is what’s coming back to bite us now. If you want to blame someone, blame our government, ever since the 40’s. 000

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 30/03/2025All was destroyed for oil don’t forget. American “national interests” and that same mentality was applied to Venezuela and still true in Iraq. It’s a reminder of the power of the API and the destruction it leaves behind. 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦💪💪💪💪🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦 000
mrxexon @mrxexon.bsky.social · 30/03/2025We kept the Shah in power beyond his welcome. All for oil... The people were kept in check by SAVAK, a secret police force. This made the Shah a hated man. The people needed help to throw him/ and us off. Nobody answered but radical Islam. And the people went from the frying pan into the fire... 4280
Tuneraider @tuneraider.bsky.social · 30/03/2025Yup, they have a long history of of it. Repeated the same mistakes in Afganistan and Iraq 000

The Corgi Commissar 🎲 @corgicommissar.bsky.social · 31/03/2025They committed the most cardinal sin of the Cold War "we would like to purchase and own the resource extraction facilities on our land from our former colonial overlords" which is a one way ticket to getting your shit CIA'd. 090

Hamid Mohseni @reasolife.bsky.social · 30/03/2025Iran was colonized by western colonialists in 70 and now colonized by Arabs and indirectly by western colonialists. West have not supported Iranians and women's revolt against mullas but support servant Reza Shah's son. 000
King Harkinian @kingharkinian.bsky.social · 30/03/2025That’s right, and that’s why we need to destroy Iran. Or else the Cheeto in chief will do the same thing here……… 030
Zz🪐 Luctor et emergo @zeebest1.bsky.social · 30/03/2025U.S. also pushed Iran into the arms of China&Russia when they manufactured that coup to place a puppet leader for their oil. Sanctioning them for almost 5 decades now, they had no choice. The hard liners took over after the revolution. Even so, Iranian people always felt admiration for Americans. 000
cookiesboy.bsky.social @cookiesboy.bsky.social · 30/03/2025Yes the important part in that the US citizens supported the Shaw being removed. The American people were fed the exact propaganda needed to do that. Gulp Gulp think for yourself and check twice with instant information you have now before you swallow people. 110
AmericanSilo @americansilo.bsky.social · 30/03/2025Just for accuracy, Iranian women need not wear the black, full body *chador* as the picture might indicate. In fact, modest western-like clothing is fine out in public with a pastel *hijab* to cover most, but not necessarily all of her hair. But don't go out without the hijab. Bad things. 020

River City Gorilla 🦍 @rcgorilla.bsky.social · 30/03/2025Reminder, Iran was a secular democracy before the west staged a coup. 040
alonaloni.bsky.social @alonaloni.bsky.social · 30/03/2025The cold war, we made a lot of mistakes... Are you suggesting that the current leadership of Iran is beneficial to its citizens and the region? Bombing them isn't the answer... 000

Mohsen Majnoon @digigraphs.bsky.social · 30/03/2025Was it much better than this for Iran and the world? 100%. Was it liberal democracy? Are you ducking kidding me? Read! 😂 230
Beragon @beragon.bsky.social · 30/03/2025Take comfort that the Cold War and in fact the entire 20th century turns out to have been a mistake. MAGA is obliterating that history and surrendering to Russia. So we have that going for us. 010
Maureen @mightymo2008.bsky.social · 30/03/2025Women in Iran use to go to college & work. I fear with the current Maga party this would happen here in America. The Handmaid’s Tale! Some men would prefer women to go backwards in time! No rights. 011

Dr. DioxiNation @djzaber.bsky.social · 30/03/2025Hard to take fossil fuels and other resources from liberal democracies. Much easier to install a violent autocratic regime with easily corrupted leaders. Not so easy when the social reaction is religious extremism taking over. 010
Jewish Space Laser Technician @bigtparker.bsky.social · 30/03/2025It's because we really hate Democracy. 110

JBMcQuilken @felidia.bsky.social · 30/03/2025Perhaps, but the Shah held thousands in torture prisons. It wasn’t all roses and rainbows. 010
AnnaUniversal @speckonblue.bsky.social · 30/03/2025Do not side with ayatollahs. They hijacked an anti-shah revolution that was a backlash to installing the shah. Bolsheviks did not topple the tzar too. They toppled a weak and imperfect, but a democracy. 120
